Biography

Another of UAE's Pakistani imports, Amjad Ali is a left-handed opener from Lahore with an extravagant, Lara-esque backlift and a reputation for shot-playing. He made his first-class debut for Lahore Blues in the Quaid-e-Azam Trophy in 2002, being captained by Saleem Elahi and playing alongside Imran Farhat, but struggled to force his way into a regular top-order slot and soon drifted away from top-level cricket in Pakistan.
